I thought they'd already determined Mr. Rogers is the root of all evil in the US today.

vartian		2007-11-02 10:06:12 AM

Oh, come now...do they really believe this or do they all just crack up laughing toward the end of the show and sign out with some zany circus music and "boing" sound effects?

SpinStopper		2007-11-02 10:06:33 AM

OMFG I saw her belly button ;)

And a nice one it is, at that.

I blame Mary Tyler Moore and Bea Arthur for the feminist movement.

"I could sometimes remember watching I Dream of Jeannie and traumatizing myself two or three times an episode."

Jon Stewart owes me a new keyboard.

SherKhan		2007-11-02 10:38:23 AM

Oh when I of Jeannie dreamt
I'd wake to find my PJ's creamt

This is the most oblique attempt at linking Iraq to the attacks on the U.S. yet.

/Jeanie's from Baghdad!

FarkinHostile		2007-11-02 10:59:15 AM

Barbara Eden in her prime was one of the most beautiful, sexy women to ever be seen on television. Seriously.

Hell, I STILL dream of Jeannie.

SherKhan		2007-11-02 11:06:16 AM

A long cry from the first fear of women to arise from an Eden.

Three Crooked Squirrels		2007-11-02 11:10:25 AM

"Prosti-tot" is pretty funny.

To be fair, the bobbleheads at Fox & Friends think showing your belly button is so deplorable only because they still believe that that's where the baby comes out when it's born.

2wolves		2007-11-02 11:33:21 AM

Steve Doocey was the D.C. Fox reporter who rode the elephant when the circus came to town.

bitteroldman		2007-11-02 11:39:32 AM

That's classic.
I agree with the guy in the Eddie Munster costume.
ROFL!

She has a perfect body in that first photo. IDEAL.

Oh HELL yes...I WET dream of Jeannie...

She STILL has great legs (well from what I remember of a few years ago).

I Said		2007-11-02 11:40:58 AM

Regardless of left or right wing bias, this is the WORST morning show on television. Absolute drivel.

EdNortonsTwin		2007-11-02 11:41:13 AM

She was indeed perfection back in the day. Definetly traumatized, definetly.

EdNortonsTwin		2007-11-02 11:42:11 AM

Her best line? "Yes master"

Compulsive Liar 1986		2007-11-02 11:42:37 AM

get it right. today's moral decline comes from rock and roll and the marijuana cigarettes!

She's... around 80 now... right?

Mr. Titanium		2007-11-02 11:44:12 AM

You didn't see her belly button on the air. Network sensors thought it was too suggestive. Her actual outfit on the air was more conservative.

Tom_Thump		2007-11-02 11:44:30 AM

Today's moral decline can be traced back to the source--Barbara Eden

Indeed, yet another reason to love her.

overlord_mike		2007-11-02 11:44:50 AM

There is no moral decline, We are just more aware of our lack of morals.

By. me

Memoryalpha		2007-11-02 11:45:56 AM

Let me guess, from the Weenerss fox is citing the naval slip that happened once for a bout a second or two in the entire run of the series as reason for moral decline? (Not gonna RTFA I don't do fox.)

HotWingConspiracy		2007-11-02 11:46:55 AM

I can't understand being traumatized by I Dream of Jeannie, but I will say I was slightly disturbed by some of the costumes that showed up at my door.

The Onanist		2007-11-02 11:47:11 AM

FWIW: She didn't show her navel on the show. Her outfit covered it.

Also - What better SitCom could there be? You have the female lead prancing around in that sheer costume calling the male lead "Master" and be willing to do ANYTHING for him!

/Um...I'll be in my bunk for a while.
//"Bewtiched" was great, too...a HOT female lead and all the guys had smokes/drinks in their hands in every episode - plus Paul Lynde would show up on occasion.

Sticky Hands		2007-11-02 11:47:42 AM

Morticia was my first lust....

Lane83		2007-11-02 11:48:15 AM

Traumatized?

/Danger, Will Robinson! We've got another deeply closeted right-wing blowhard!

GurneyHalleck		2007-11-02 11:48:18 AM

The ultimate adult male fantasy. A show about a submissive, obedient, super-hot young Caucasian female with the power to grant any wish instantly and calls you "Master." It didn't take long to figure out why my first real girlfriend resembled Barbara Eden during her Jeanie years.

sseye		2007-11-02 11:48:35 AM

i thought it was jazz music and flappers with their short skirts and boyish haircuts and the evils of alcoholic spirits?

And all this time I thought it was Ursula Andress's fault. Who knew?

nobozo: "I could sometimes remember watching I Dream of Jeannie and traumatizing myself two or three times an episode."

The "And that was before Tivo" at the end was just the icing on the cake for that one as well.

The Fox females added "Check out my legs! Did I mention I'm blonde! I love conservative men! Keep watching Fox!"

Walker		2007-11-02 11:49:40 AM

Fox & Friends is a show for morons by morons. None of them have any idea what they are talking about. They just sit there and spout nonsense. A lot of the time before they announce a "fact" they start out by saying "I heard...." or "You know they say....". Good sources there: "I heard" and "they say". That Steve Doocy guy used to be on the local news here in DC. They would give him the "wacky" stories to do. Now we are supposed to take him seriously? Don't even get me started on the airhead women on the show, they make him look like Albert Einstein.

boonfarker		2007-11-02 11:51:07 AM

These are the kinds of navel disasters that I'd like to see more of on the History Channel.

bellybuttons, music, skirts...it all adds up to Hell in a Handbasket i tells ya.

BMFPitt		2007-11-02 11:52:57 AM

Jon gets his early dose of crazy from the brown hair guy who's not Steve Doocy on FOX & Friends, who says he was "traumatized" by Barbara Eden's sexy outfit on "I Dream Of Jeannie" back in the 60's, and blames her for all the slutty Halloween costumes of today.

See, and you all said that seeing teh boobies never traumatized anyone as a child. Lest you forget about the morans at Fox News.

timboalogo		2007-11-02 11:54:03 AM

60's sitcom babes were so HAWT.

spittman		2007-11-02 11:54:30 AM

Not to rain on the parade too much, but Fox and Friends is meant to be a bit lighthearted. In general, all of the morning shows are not hard hitting jounalism.

Yes and yes. I remember thinking Jeannie was pretty, but Morticia did such strange things to my hormones.

reilmb		2007-11-02 11:54:56 AM

Bewitched and Jeannie reruns were back to back in the afternoons when I was a teenager, and let me tell you that was one great hour of TV.

CaptainBeer		2007-11-02 11:56:00 AM

Compulsive Liar 1986:

Marijuana cigarettes? Dude, they're called "reefers". What a square, man...

The Onanist		2007-11-02 11:57:36 AM

I was always an Emma Peel fan. Between those black leather pants and that merry widow outfit...
